Learning with the world, not just about it…

Learning with the World, Not Just About It

iEARN-USA is a community of truly energizing educators, across the country, who believe that bringing the world into their classroom motivates students to not only learn curriculum subjects, but make a difference in their local communities and our world.
We'll be sharing classroom stories, tips for improved project collaboration as well as issues and events relevant to global educators across the United States.

Your Day to Connect with Teachers Worldwide

Want to give your students a real-world, world-class education? Connect them to real classes worldwide! The Chris Stevens Youth Network is an excellent place to start. This initiative is administered by iEARN and funded by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs at the U.S. State Department to engage students and educators in the Middle East, North Africa and the U.S. in meaningful, curriculum-based project-based learning. We’re excited to launch this new Chris Stevens Youth Network site in time for World Teachers’s Day, October 5.

As part of the Chris Stevens Youth Network, iEARN-Jordanwill be conducting a workshop on collaboration and online collaborative projects on October 5th at the American Language Center in Amman. Teachers get a chance to meet virtually their colleagues around the world who are also participating in the program, and explore ideas for collaborative global projects to engage their students in. Also this October 5th, iEARN-Tunisia will celebrate its 2nd anniversary and World Teachers’ Day. Students will read out poems that celebrate their teachers, sing songs and share this celebration with their peers in the USA via Skype.
